We hear it, but we already knew. And the ones who won’t listen won’t listen. We have been here before countless times, and we will fail again, like we always do. Then, we will recover and muddle through thanks to the underfunded and overworked ones who care.
I find this very interesting, how much time does Jagex put into stopping these private servers? I played WoW private servers for a while, but you never knew when they would get shut down.
I’ve only been playing runescape for a few years, but what are the advantages to using private servers? Do they generally have an ironman game mode implemented? That is how I prefer to play.
Also interesting to see a private server of classic doing so well, that is very cool to see! Did they keep the enchanted chest bug so no one can get dragon stones? I hope not, but it is a very funny part of history.

Imagine how we feel over here in NZ when we wanted to watch S2E1 of GH we actually got S1E3 of DOOL instead! Boy when the NPD were told about this I bet they ASAP’d their pants!

I recently moved to California. Before i moved, people asked me “why are you moving there, its so bad?”. Now that I’m here, i understand it less. The state is beautiful. There is so much to do....
Sounds mostly to me like the free market working as intended. You have a single state expressing the majority of American’s values, so everyone wants to live there. California’s portion of the GDP reflects what the concentration of blue voters does for the economy.
Okay, I listen to a fair amount of history podcasts, so let’s see what I can pull out of my head for fun:
There was Rainbow Man, who famously went to sports games across America, holding up a sign that read “John 3:16” in an attempt to convert people to Christianity. He later died in a hotel shoot out where he took a maid hostage in his hotel room full of guns.
There was the time the President of America secretly went on a trip to Panama on one of two ships. While trying to show off to the president doing drills, the other ship accidentally shot a torpedo at the presidents ship. He pulled a pistol and attempted to shoot the torpedo with it.
The settlement at Roanoke, which was one of the earliest attempts by Europeans to settle in America and by the time ships got back with supplies (I believe years after they said they would be back) the settlement was empty. Still unsolved to this day.
America has dropped at least two nuclear warheads on itself accidentally, which have all failed to detonate.
Benedict Arnold was one of the best military minds ever born in America. He paid for his own troops for years, and when he asked for repayment or even his own salary, the Republicans claimed he actually owed the government money. They gave him tje reputation of only caring about money and refused to ever pay him until he finally took money from Britan to make ends meet.
George Bush senior crashed into German electrical lines and flew the plane back to base causing an international incident. He never received punishment for this and continued to fly for the military. He also did a bunch of drug smuggling and no one cared.
Look into pretty much any time people wanted to explore an area for the first time and there was most likely a massive loss of life and money. Australia and America seem to have the funniest stories of people’s attempts to name every river and mountain they see.
They were not the only white people to have ever been there though. The colonists could have been slaughtered and those were French decendents or something though. There is no way to prove what happened.
A nuke costs something like $80,000,000 to produce. It takes time and effort from multiple groups of people. What is an example of losses if this doesn’t count?
It’s pretty common when people want to have an edgy name in a game with name filtering. You just swap the first letters in two words. Like datfick4, bamrutt4, that kinda thing.
What are you even talking about? I don’t have to do anything. And I don’t at all understand why you told me that tge definition of democracy is in fact, not where, “what you can’t do is to say, “everything is rigged because the outcome is not what I wanted” and call it a day.” That is wild.
Everything is rigged, and I can’t imagine anyone being crazy enough to say otherwise. I make okay money and would need to work for like ten thousand years to make what some others in our country make in a second. Are you telling me that a system where one person can be placed on such a pedestal could ever be a good thing?
